"The Smoking Man" speaks, while hiding behind a keyboard, from a public library in Columbus, OH. I guess they don't have dial-up access in Glenmont?:rolleyes:

You know, since you're at the library, perhaps you should check out a book on proper grammar using correct english and sentence structure? Your blathering is almost too painful on the eyes.

As for my nostalgia funny car having been advertised as an attraction at a previous "Pontiacs in the Park" event at VMP, I had nothing to do with that, nor did I receive any money for that, nor was I ever going to receive any money for the appearance. The advertising for that event is handled by Chief Pontiac Productions, not myself. If you are upset that the Crusader funny car did not make an appearance, I'd like to suggest that you take the matter up with Chief Pontiac Productions.

Since we're on the subject of publicly disseminating factual information, why don't you answer this question, Mr. KRE Mouthpiece:

Why is it that Mr. Roberts, who purchased a MR1 "straight 4-bolt main" block, did not receive a public recall letter on said block, while other customers that purchased the same style blocks did? The facts are irrefutable.

Please send the creamy filled sponge cakes to me at:

11010 Trade Road
Richmond, VA 23236

I'll be sure to pick them up on my next visit to redeem one of my many gift certificates.:rolleyes:

"Self imposed" recalls are at the discretion of the manufacturer, and can be directed as they see appropriate. A "court mandated" recall is something totally different.

Hypothetically, a manufacturer could decide not to recall a specific product believing they will end up in court anyway, possibly resulting in a more favorable outcome.

Sometimes the squeeky wheel doesn't get the oil, it simply gets removed and replaced with a more desirable wheel.:Peace:

What if the self imposed recall letter is worded as "[insert vendor name here] is undertaking a voluntary recall of ALL [insert block name here] cylinder blocks it has sold with the original Pontiac style straight center main caps"? Would that not apply to every customer that purchased such a block?

Well....based on this all being "second hand" info and only assuming it to be accurate, in principle perhaps it should apply. But strategically, if the manufacturer strongly believes they'll end up in litigation, and views the complaintant as "hostile or slanderous" then their best approach from a legal standpoint is to let it go to court.

Again, a self imposed recall can be as narrow as the manufacturer chooses: the week,day or hour a product was made, color of skin,or number of nipples.

Only a court of law can determine whether the criteria used was fair and resonable.
